Tha frick? A generation is a "turnover". 1960 too late? The Boom started in 1946 and ran until 1964 - 18 years is a solid generation - born and through high school.
There are always "tweeners" and generation boundaries are, by definition, fuzzy. They tried to short X to only 15 years. How many "generations" of Americans do you think there have been? 250?

I get your point. But the boomers were born when their fathers returned from the war and had a bunch of kids. That didn’t last 18 years.
But as a generation, probably right.

I had classmates who were late in life children of WWII veterans. My father was too young for the Korean War. Yet we're all supposed to be the same generation.
